---------------
tzdata (2009r-1ubuntu1) lucid; urgency=low

  * Merge with Debian unstable. Remaining Ubuntu changes:
    - debian/control, debian/rules, debian/source/format: Revert conversion to
      3.0 (quilt) source format, not supported yet in Launchpad.
  * SRUs for 2009r will use a different orig.tar.gz naming which will be lower
    than 2009r. (LP: #467165)
  * 2009r fixes DST for San Luis, Argentina. (LP: #472720)

tzdata (2009r-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release.
  * Don't remove .pc/ in clean target.

tzdata (2009q-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release.
  * Use 3.0 (quilt) source format, drop build dependency on quilt.

tzdata (2009p-1) unstable; urgency=low

2009o-2009r diff:

- Update time zones for some Australian stations on Antarctica
- Fix historical DST rules for Hong Kong
- Update DST rules for Syria (effective from October)
- Update DST rules for Argentina (includes our patch argentinas-dst-2009.diff and fixes DST for province San Luis)
- Split out new TZ Asia/Novokuznetsk
- Add some new zone definitions for Java compatibility

Test case for Syria:

2009r (correctly switch on last Friday in October already):
$ LANG= TZ=Asia/Damascus date -d 2009-10-30
Fri Oct 30 00:00:00 EET 2009

With previous rules:
$ LANG= TZ=Asia/Damascus date -d 2009-10-30
Fri Oct 30 00:00:00 EEST 2009

Sorry, there was some noise in the previous diff (struggled with the quilt 3.0 format); there are no Java related changes.

2009o-2009r diff:

- Update time zones for some Australian stations on Antarctica
- Fix historical DST rules for Hong Kong
- Update DST rules for Syria (effective from October)
- Update DST rules for Argentina (includes our patch argentinas-dst-2009.diff and fixes DST for province San Luis)
- Split out new TZ Asia/Novokuznetsk

I verified that the -proposed packages upgrade and install, and that in dapper/hardy/intrepid/jaunty/karmic the output is now correct (also compared to www.timeanddate.com):

  $ LANG= TZ=America/Argentina/San_Luis date; LANG= TZ=Asia/Damascus date -d 2009-10-30; LANG= TZ=Asia/Dhaka date
  Fri Nov 13 05:31:33 WARST 2009 # http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/city.html?n=613
  Fri Oct 30 00:00:00 EET 2009 # see above
  Fri Nov 13 15:31:33 BDST 2009 # http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/city.html?n=73
